ton prior to the charges now made. Several
county commissioners were then called and
testified as to the way that bills were exam
ined and passed by the county board, and
also as to various other matters connected
with the boards business. One of the COM

contributed to fund to pay counsel in this
case, and that he was himself resting under
fourteen indictments for conspiracy to de-
fraud the county. The testimony was not
important nor sensational The judge mott

did you have an understanding with him
that he was to have s. per day or 100 a

BLACK ON PENSIONS.
THE COMMISSIONER MAKES A SPEECH
AT SPRINGFIELD, ILLS,

During Which He Is Diverted from the
Course Of His Remarks by an Inqniring
Auditor, and States the Policy of the PEN
sion OMEGA Service Pension Measure
Proposed by the Grand Army.
SPRINGFIELD, Ills, June 1l.-Mr Oren-
dorf, of the state central Democratic commit
tee introduced Genl j. C. Black United
States pension commissioner, to 5000 people,
including the senator's and representatives of
the thirty-fifth general assembly, from
the entrance of the Leland hotel Friday
night, where they had gathered upon the
street with band to serenade him. He was
greeted with enthusiastic applause, and refer
red to the beauty of the capital city of
Illinois He said he had declined the invita-
ton of the members of the assembly to
deliver an address, but had changed his
mind when pressed to do so. He had
been absent for little more than two
years, during which time he had not the OPP
portunity to address an Illinois audience He
was proud to come from the capital of the
nation to bring its greetings to the state of
Illinois, the greatest state, both in war and in
peace, in the republic. 1t was not the garden
state, but the shield bearing state
because it lay upon the bosom of the
